DB Pilot

DB Pilot is an AI-native database tool designed for engineers, analysts, and business users to interact with databases through a graphical interface, an SQL editor with smart autocomplete, and notebook-style blocks that mix SQL, Python, and interactive charts. It runs locally on a user’s machine, connects to multiple database types, and provides AI-assisted data exploration and code generation without sending data to servers. The tool emphasizes native data handling and local operation while offering AI features to speed up tasks.

DB Pilot features notebooks that blend SQL, Python, inputs, and interactive tables to build dashboards and iteratively explore data. It combines SQL queries, Python code, and visual blocks in a block-based interface, similar to Jupyter Notebooks, and runs locally. Users can query and transform data across databases, files, and external APIs, going back and forth between SQL and Python and accessing results in subsequent blocks.

In addition to data exploration, DB Pilot provides an AI assistant with access to the latest AI models, inline help in multiple blocks, and the ability to tailor AI behavior with custom rules. It supports creating and editing charts with AI, managing context for different databases and notebooks, and fixing errors with AI suggestions, all within a local environment.

DB Pilot offers a range of plans and platform support, including a free tier with local database access and a one-time purchase option to unlock premium features. It lists supported databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, DuckDB, CockroachDB, and notes that Linux and Windows support are coming soon, with Mac users having dedicated downloads.
